Stitched You Card

For my first card, I spelled out “you” using the Stitched Alphabet Dies. I added colorful stitching with embroidery floss to each letter. I adhered thin strips solid colored cardstock behind the die-cut letters and stamped a coordinating sentiment from the Stitched Alphabet Descriptors Sentiments Stamp Set.

Stitched Love Card

For my second card, I spelled out “love” using solid colored cardstock. I added white stitching to each letter using white embroidery floss followed by tiny white adhesive gems stickers. I die-cut the shadow layer for each letter using vellum. I created a background panel out of cream cardstock and adhered and angled panel of matte gold cardstock. I stamped a coordinating sentiment from the Stitched Alphabet Descriptors Sentiments Stamp Set and added a few clear drops for embellishment.

Hi Card

For my third card, I foiled a sentiment using the Stitched Alphabet Note Sentiments with gold foil onto Lunar Gray cardstock. I die cut two letters into the Lunar Gray panel to spell out “hi”. Behind the open negative space, I adhered thin strips of solid colored cardstock on an angle.
